OzonAction has partnered with the  American  Society of  Heating, Refrigeration and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE) to host the Caribbean Network of National Ozone OfficersThematic Meeting and AHR (Air Conditioning, Heating and Refrigeration) Technology Tour during the ASHRAE Winter Conference, 1-4 February 2020 in Orlando, Florida, USA. 

Workshop with ECOWAS Member States and ECOWAS Secretariat on Harmonization of ODS Regulations for the ECOWAS region and on the possibility of Adopting an Extended HS Code to accommodate the Refrigerants affected by the Kigali Amendment

Dates to be confirmed

The forum is intended to facilitate the sharing of experiences between the key players in the foam sector in West Asia to ensure that WA countries experience a seamless transition to the new climate and ozone-friendly technologies with minimal disruptions and without distracting them from reaching their existing targets for HCFC phase-out and to reduce the growth of HFCs, thereby reducing future costs to both the Multilateral Fund and the environment.

The aim of the workshop is to exchange information and agree on the necessary measures required to strengthen the enforcement of the licensing system on ODS trade between the seven selected countries and to prevent unauthorized movement of ODS.  The Pilot NOU and Customs Twinning Workshop and back to back parallel Border Dialogues will set up a cooperation mechanism between the countries.
